The world-scale expansion of markets and market relations ranks
among the most transformative developments of our times. We can
refer to this process by way of a generic if inelegant term -
marketization. This book explores how processes of marketization
have registered across East Asia's diverse social landscape and its
implications for patterns of welfare and inequality. While there
has been great interest in East Asia's economic rise, treatments of
welfare and inequality in the region have been largely relegated to
specialist literatures. Proceeding from a synthetic critique of
political economy, this book places welfare and inequality at the
center of a more encompassing comparative approach to political
economy that construes countries as dynamic, globally embedded
social orders defined and animated by distinctive social relational
and institutional features.
